LED Lighting
Our patented LED technology provides color-corrected lighting solutions for aerospace and automotive applications. The phosphor-converted LEDs with silicone boot technology offer precise color tuning to 1000+ coordinate variations. These solid-state solutions deliver high CRI (95 typical) with exceptional color and brightness stability across demanding environments.
Sealed Beam Lamps
Certified sealed beam lamps meet FAA requirements for aviation lighting applications. Available in PAR36, PAR46, and PAR64 configurations with voltages from 12V-28V and wattages up to 1000W. These long-life quartz halogen solutions provide reliable illumination for taxi/landing and logo lighting applications in commercial and military aircraft.
Subminiature Lamps
Precision incandescent lamps ranging from 3mm to 40mm diameters serve aerospace and automotive needs. With voltage capabilities from 1.5V-130V, these FAA-approved components meet military specifications QPL-6363 for emergency slide indicators, floor proximity lighting, and cockpit backlighting in commercial and military aircraft.
Fluorescent Tubes
High-efficiency fluorescent tubes provide cabin and galley lighting solutions for commercial aircraft. Available in T5 and T8 configurations with G5/G13 bases, these energy-efficient lamps offer warm-white and cool-white color options while maintaining strict quality controls for aerospace applications.
Incandescent Displays
Specialized incandescent displays engineered for cockpit instrumentation with sunlight readability. Available in single-digit, multi-digit, and alphanumeric configurations, these FAA-certified displays operate reliably in extreme temperatures with night vision compatibility and salt spray resistance.
